The quiet valley, the vast meadow, the figure of Sima Xuan sitting alone.

Since the mysterious man left, about half a month has passed, and Sima Xuan has been sitting cross-legged on the grass and has never gotten up. The birds in the valley would also use him as a resting bush from time to time, and Sima Xuan seemed to be one with the valley.

The stars have changed, and another half a month has passed. Sima Xuan had been sitting in the valley for a month.

On this day, the sun rose in the east, and the early morning sun sprinkled into the valley and shone on Sima Xuan's body, and the birds also quietly flew down on his head. The bird rested for a while and tried to fly away, but no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't fly. A mocking voice said lightly: "If you have enough rest, you want to leave, isn't it too cheap for you?" As he spoke, Sima Xuan, who had been sitting cross-legged for a month, stood up, took a deep breath, and shouted, and the frightened birds flew into the air from the woods in flocks.

Sima Xuan looked around the valley, his perception instantly covered every corner of the valley, except for the animals in the mountains and forests, he didn't find a trace of people, and then he said secretly: "It seems that he is really gone, who is going to save me?" Sima Xuan, who had recovered his cultivation, also had time to think about this problem at this moment. After a long time, Sima Xuan finally shook his head, sighed, and said, "Thinking about it, the most likely one is my father's former friend." Forget it, leave it alone, and get out of here for now. With that, he walked out of the valley.

Out of the valley and through the woods, Sima Xuan came to an avenue. He looked around and found that the pedestrians passing by were all dressed as business travelers, and he was also relieved of his worries, as long as it was not an official road, he would not meet the sergeants of the City Lord's Mansion. Since leaving the woods, Sima Xuan found that he was still under the jurisdiction of the Martial Capital, and the possibility of encountering the soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion on the avenue would be greatly increased, but if it was a business road, the probability of encountering it would be greatly reduced. Sima Xuan found a pedestrian and asked about the nearest village here, and learned that three miles away from here was Wuzhi Village, which surprised him, but it was good that he could return to the valley faster.

As soon as he heard that Sima Xuan was also going to Wuzhi Village, he warmly invited Sima Xuan to go with him and let Sima Xuan come to his house as a guest. Sima Xuan also readily agreed, and he hurried with Li Fu. The two chatted as they hurried. From Li Fu's mouth, Sima Xuan learned that since half a month ago, a group of soldiers from the City Lord's Mansion had been stationed in Wuzhi Village, claiming that there were bandits in the nearby mountains and forests. When Sima Xuan heard this, he also pretended to be surprised, and Li Fu saw Sima Xuan's panicked expression, but he comforted him and said, there is nothing to be afraid of, there are many people who practice martial arts in Wuzhi Village, if the thieves really dare to come, I promise to let them come in vertically and go out horizontally. Hearing Li Fu say this, Sima Xuan also laughed.

While the two were talking, they came to the entrance of Wuzhi Village, Sima Xuan lied that he had something to do, that is, to say goodbye to Li Fu, Li Fu persuaded again and again, let Sima Xuan go to his house to sit first, but Sima Xuan politely declined, Li Fu saw that he couldn't say that Sima Xuan could not move, so he told Sima Xuan where he lived, and asked him to come and sit after finishing his errands.

Let's say that after Sima Xuan and Li Fu separated from the entrance of Wuzhi Village, they walked towards a forest not far from the village. Coming to the woods, Sima Xuan flew up the tree and looked in the direction of Wuzhi Village. Sure enough, as Li Fu said, there were indeed many soldiers from the City Lord's Mansion patrolling back and forth in the village. Sima Xuan watched for a while, figured out the patrol route of the sergeant in the village and the time of the changing of the guard, and lay on his back on the tree, waiting for the night to fall.

The sun sets, and the moon rises.

Sima Xuan opened his eyes from the tree, looked up at the moonlight, and flew down from the tree, his figure flashing towards Wuzhi Village. Not long after, Sima Xuan entered the village. During the day, Sima Xuan learned from Li Fu that there were many people who practiced martial arts in Wuzhi Village, which made Sima Xuan a little surprised. At first, he wanted to take advantage of the night to catch a sergeant from the City Lord's Mansion and ask them the purpose of coming here, but after hearing that there were many martial arts practitioners in Wuzhi Village, Sima Xuan had to rethink whether his plan was feasible. However, after thinking about it, he was just a sergeant who captured the famous city lord's mansion, and he expected that the seniors of Wuzhicun should not interfere, as long as he didn't do too much and didn't affect the normal life of the people of Wuzhicun, he should be able to get out of the way. Thinking of this, Sima Xuan waited in the tree until late at night.

The night is the best shelter. Sima Xuan took advantage of the night and hid in a dark corner, waiting for the group of patrolling sergeants not far away to leave. It didn't take long for the group of sergeants to slowly walk away, and Sima Xuan walked out of the dark corner, looked around, and actually saw Li Fu's home. Sima Xuan glanced at him twice, then he didn't look back, and touched the place where the sergeants were stationed.

After dodging several waves of patrolling sergeants, Sima Xuan came to the outside of the camp of the supreme commander among these sergeants. Sima Xuan listened quietly, and a steady and even breathing sound came from the tent. Sima Xuan, who was outside the tent, smiled secretly in his heart: "Sleeping as an official and patrolling as a soldier is still a good errand." However, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well tonight!" Sima Xuan looked around and saw that there were no sergeants, so he held his breath and entered the camp. By the faint light of the candle, Sima Xuan came to the officer's approach. A smile lifted at the corner of Sima Xuan's mouth, and he said in his heart: "Come on, let me see how you, the officer, will react." Just as he was about to kidnap this officer, he heard someone outside the camp say, "Situ Xuan, what are you trying to do by breaking into my military camp at night?"

Hearing this, Sima Xuan chuckled in his heart, and said in his heart: "It's bad, it's actually discovered!" Thinking like this, Sima Xuan wanted to rush out from the other side of the tent, at this time, there was only one person outside the tent who spoke, this Sima Xuan could be sure, so as long as he rushed out from the other end of the tent, even if the person outside the tent was a powerhouse at the peak of the fifth order, he would not want to catch him.

However, just as Sima Xuan rushed towards the outside of the camp tent, the person who had been lying on the bed in the camp tent was even faster than him, and instantly appeared on Sima Xuan's escape path. Through the dim light, Sima Xuan saw the man's face clearly, and said in surprise: "It's you? Li Fu!"
